Congratulations to the shortlisted entries for MAGNA 2011 - the first ever National Awards for Australia's museums and galleries.

Winners will be announced the Museums Australia and Interpretation Australia National Conference at the dinner on Thursday17 November 2011.

Winners and Highly Commended awardees will receive a certificate at the awards ceremony.  Trophies for the winners will be retrospectively awarded next year - unfortunately they will not be ready in time for the Conference.

Please note the changes to categories in Exhibition.  As entries were being judged it was determined that more sub-categories were required to ensure fair judging of each entry.  This has resulted in more award categories being developed.
